Description
Stowe Cottage is a former weaver's house, now a small detached house, built around 1790. It is constructed of brick with pebbledash render and features ashlar dressings. The building has a brick chimney and roofs made of stone slate and corrugated asbestos. It is three stories tall with an attic, and there is a single-storey section with an attic on the south side.
The east side has tall, single keyed Venetian windows on each floor, along with an oculus in the gable. The lower two windows have 20th-century louvred shutters and are fitted with iron casements, except for a 20th-century metal casement window on the ground floor. There is a 20th-century flat-roofed addition to the lower part of the house on the left. On the north side, there is a central middle floor casement window with a stone surround and a small off-centre ground floor casement window with a 20th-century glazed door to the left. A brick chimney is mounted on the gable at the west side. Each floor contains a simple square room lit by the Venetian windows, which were formerly used for a hand loom. Stowe Cottage is noted for its unusual architectural pretension as a weaver's house.
